At Least Your Day Wasn't This Bad
At Least Your Day Wasn't This Bad-January 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:12:27

I’ve been trying not to complain too much about Texas’s absurd weather because my family hasn’t been hit quite as hard as others. But there are just some people that had it even worse. Nothing will ever be as bad as walking out to discover your car has been completely engulfed by Mr. Freeze’s wrath.

When Kiana Vance from Dallas, Texas headed out to her parking garage to check on her car, she found that a pipe had burst directly above it—and that her car was entirely engulfed in ice. Like, impressively coated. Like, it’s gonna take a week of warm weather to solve this problem coated.

“There are seven floors in this parking garage,” Vance says in the video, showing off the empty parking spaces before turning to her car, which has been iced over as a result of a pipe leak.

Vance chatted with about the situation:

Before the ice storm, I parked this car on the top level of my apartment parking garage and stopped driving it because I got a new car. Little did I know, the pipe above the car burst right when the storm hit—and nobody told me that it was leaking on my car.

I found out about it when I saw it on the news because I have been driving my other car that’s located on a different floor of the garage. It’s still frozen. I’m going to just wait for it to thaw out before doing anything that might damage the car more.

So, if you’ve been struggling with a lack of power, water, or Internet, just remember: at least your day wasn’t as bad as Kiana’s.

I can’t speak to exactly what this driver in Zhejiang, China did to piss off Zeus, god of thunder and lightning, but there certainly does appear to be beef there. Beef that seems to have been settled with Everyone’s okay, so gawk guilt-free. The strike happened on July 4, which...

What The Hell Is A Fratzog And What Is Dodge Doing With It
Those of you may have noticed something interesting when they were talking about Dodge’s plans for a future electric muscle car. A particular design motif, seen in the taillight design, and what looked like an odd, roughly triangular logo. While I suspect some of you may have recognized it,...

Blip: Did You Know This About Bowling Balls
Sure, I threw a German Ford Taunus in there, but I’m not going to lie: this Blip is about bowling balls. Somehow, I never knew they had complex-shaped, often asymmetrical cores inside, made of dense material, like the one on top of the Taunus there (shown in cutaway). Did...

How Do We Feel About F1 2021's Driver Ratings?
A few weeks after revealing the , Codemasters has now for all of us to argue over. Once again, I think they’re worth sharing, because as a sports fan there’s nothing more weirdly satisfying than good-natured arguments with other fans about how over- or underrated a particular competitor is,...
